On their 2004, No Cities Left, Montreal indie rockers The Dears have constructed a disc of beautiful orchestral pop gems.

While some have written lead singer Murray Lightburn off as a Morrissey imitator, that's really unfair. While Morrissey's influence is definitely apparent, Lightburn takes what he has learned from his hero and uses it to his advantage.

Highlights of the album include "Lost In the Plot" and "Never Destroy Us".
